If the message 'There is a problem with this website's security certificate' appears in the web browser when you try to open the embedded web server (EWS), or when you navigate within the EWS, click ' Continue to this website (not recommended)'.

NOTE:Choosing ' Continue to this website (not recommended)' will not harm your computer while you navigate within the EWS for your printer. If you encounter this error outside of your printer's EWS, your computer could be at risk.

If the browser fails to open the EWS after you click ' Continue to this website (not recommended)', refresh the browser window.

The Embedded Web Server (EWS) for the printer opens and confirms that the printer is on the same network as the computer.

Some EWS settings changes might not save if you use this version of Internet Explorer. Follow these steps to add the printer's EWS IP address to the browser’s Compatibility View Settings before continuing to the next step.

With the EWS open in Internet Explorer, click the Settings icon () in the browser menu bar.

Click Compatibility View Settings.

Click Add next to the Add this website box.

Click Close. The browser refreshes the window.

Step three: Set a static IP address

While device sharing is temporarily turned on, set a static IP address for the printer in the EWS. This ensures that the printer will retain the network IP address after device sharing is turned off again.

Click the printer's connection type to your network for steps to set a static IP address for the printer.
